KL Splash Park Fundraising Underway

Fundraising is underway to replace the Fifth Street Playground with a fantastic new Splash Park. The price of the park will be $180,000 and target date for completion is Summer 2011.

The project aims to upgrade existing washrooms to include wheel chair access, and to beautify the existing grounds with the addition of benches, picnic tables, flowers and greenery. The centerpiece of the park will be a Zero-depth “Splash Pad” with multi aquatic elements for families to enjoy and cool off in that summer heat! Admission to the park will be free.

The KL Splash Park Committee is led by committed volunteers Doug LaBerge, Cliff Lafreniere and Tony Antoniazzi. If you want to support their hard work, you can stop by Town Hall or Pinewood Park Motors to make a donation. Or mail your cheque to Pinewood Park Motors,1400 Government Road West, Swastika, Ontario P0K1T0. Receipts for tax purposes will be issued. Please call Doug, Cliff or Tony if you would like more details.

KL Housing Survey

KL is growing!

The expansion of local and regional mining operations is putting a real strain on the local housing market. But if we are to attract new development, we have to quantify demand, show what kind of units are needed, who the buyers will be, etc. To that end, we have commissioned a Housing Study.

Fill out the online survey here. All responses are kept strictly confidential. It only takes a few minutes, and will really help KL grow!
